The neurosis of marriage : Comments

By Michael Thompson, published 29/6/2015

The debate over same-sex marriage should be an opportune time to look at the whole question of marriage and whether or not it is a natural and reasonable thing for humans to do at all.

Killarney I was talking about the delightful Onthebeach's assertions that I regularly 'trash' heterosexual marriage when I advocate for legal gay marriage.
Of course there are neurotic married people, just as there are plenty of neurotic unmarried people.

I am certainly not advocating marriage as being always a place of stability, but I would suggest that neurosis is too strong a word to use in this context.

The myth of male homosexual monogamy.

One of these things is not like the other and thanks to Facebook friends with Asperger's who get their jollies from looking at statistics we can all see through the tissue thin case for "Marriage Equality". See this is just one of the problems you run into in a democracy when a good proportion of the population get build their worldview on novels, TV drama and sitcoms.
The fantasy Gay character who exists in the heads of the rainbow flag posse doesn't even resemble his real world counterpart:

Suseonline,

No, you did not make that comment in reply to anything I wrote.

Your snarky remark was directed at the author of the article. See here,

Suseonline, "The author of this article has every right to dislike marriage, and I assume he isn't married himself at this time.

However, he has no right to call those of us who believe in marriage, or are currently married, neurotic. I find that offensive and ignorant in the extreme.
..
Neither of these choices should require others to pass negative judgements on other people's legal relationship decisions. It is none of their business...."

Oh soooo sorry Onthebeach, you write so many snarky remarks to me that I neglected to use the word 'disrespected' heterosexual marriage that you wrongly attributed to me, in a diatribe that also included the word 'trash'.
Cheers,
Suse,
